Peridot Birthday

My sweetie's birthday is in August. Peridot is one of the birthstones for August. Four years ago we crossed the border into Canada on our move her from California. The joke between us is that I gave him Canada for his birthday. I haven't really found a way to top that one. But, this will be a nice card to give him anyway *grin* I just have to hide it from him for a couple weeks.

Summer's Flight

When I was looking at blog posts for manufacturers, the Impression Obsession challenge caught my eye, Hello Summer! I've been on a summery kick, so I decided to give it a try. There was one catch, they want all stamps and dies used to be their stamps and dies. Totally understandable, but.. umm.. I currently only have 2 IO dies and no stamps. However.. an idea popped into my head and it was perfect for the items I have.

Bubble Mark - The Good Book

One of my co-workers, at my day job, was looking for a bookmark for her niece's upcoming birthday and her niece is an avid reader. I thought Becky Bubbles (from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps) reading in the bath would be fun book mark. I love reading in the bath.
